Shalom. We are pleased to announce the release of a new Passover Haggadah, The Holistic Haggadah: How Will You Be Different This Passover Night? by Michael Kagan.
Publishers Weekly had the following to say about The Holistic Haggadah: "How is this night different from all other nights?" is the traditional Passover question. But Kagan (who describes himself as an "ortho-practicing, but unorthodox, Jew") wants seder participants to look beyond the obvious and ask themselves a different question: "How will this night change me?" Using the Exodus story as an allegory of an individual's spiritual slavery and redemption, Kagan advocates a holistic approach to Judaism that merges the worlds of action, emotion, intellect and spirit. Readers are asked to reflect upon what is keeping them enslaved in their "inner Mitzraim" (Egypt). Kagan spiritualizes the various elements of Passover observance; burning the hametz (leavened bread), for example, sy mbolizes a willingness to let go of attachments and anything that puffs us up. Rabbi Dov Peretz Elkins calls it "...creative, unusual and reflect[s] thinking out of the box." Includes the full traditional Passover Haggadah text in Hebrew with a new translation and original commentary in English. Details: Hardcover, 239 pages, ISBN 965-7108-49-7 Suggested retail price: $24.95 US (90 NIS in Israel) * * * The Holistic Haggadah is available around the world in fine bookstores and through library and online booksellers selling Jewish interest books.
